Thanks for the sup****t DCI, however, the original pledge began with a
military salute that was held for the phrase "I pledge allegiance" and
thereafter the arm stretched out toward the flag for the rest of the
robotic
chanting. In actual use, the second part of the gesture was performed with
a
straight arm and palm down by children performing the forced ritual
chanting. That part of the Pledge was exactly like the salute of the
National Socialist German Workers' Party and pre-dated it by 3 decades. A

Due to the way that both gestures were used sequentially in the pledge,
the
military salute led to the Nazi salute. The Nazi salute is an extended
military salute via the USA's Pledge Of Allegiance. Which is all the more
ominous because the Bellamys advocated Military Socialism.
All of that was established in the research of the historian Dr. Rex Curry
(author of "Pledge Of Allegiance Secrets").
Socialists in the USA originated the Nazi salute, robotic group-chanting
to
flags, Nazism, flag feti****sm, and the modern swastika as "S" symbolism
for
"Socialism" later used by the National Socialist German Workers' Party.
